Timber Boards Axolotl 41" x 9.17" Freestyle & Dancing Style Longboard complete. Multi-stage concave, less pronounced in the center compared to the stance area. Impressively lightweight at only 1.7Kg, Axolotl stands out for its featherweight design. Constructed with bamboo, fiberglass, and carbon. The graphics are embedded in the fiberglass, preserving their splendor. Kicks are reinforced with an additional layer of bamboo. Multiple wheelbase options: 24.6" - 25.8". Choose the shorter option for long-distance pop or go for the shorter kick for a more vertical pop. Timber Boards decks are handcrafted in the Netherlands. The deck is topped with a non-slip fabric.
Mechanical Properties
Lot’s of testing. We have to admit, some lay-ups worked better than others. But we found it. We can tell you this:
It has carbon on top and stringers on the bottom. Stiff, light and dare I say pretty.
Also, it has the highest quality E-glass (just like all Timber boards). Meaning: less dense, strong and durable.
It is LIGHT. it weighs around 1.7 kg, which is pretty crazy. Only cruisers will become lighter.
Adding up all this glass, carbon, the outline and the concave you get a perfectly balanced, lightweight and super strong board.
Even the way this board looks (the outline) is thought out carefully to minimize chipping and keeps you skating on a good looking board longer. But who cares about the looks anyways? Hollywood. That’s who.
Wheelbase
Most people choose to start with the widest wheelbase and after it gets some damage on the kicks, they move up to the shortest wheelbase. This has the upsides of making your board skate well for a longer period and steadily increasing your pop by wearing down the tails and switching wheelbases.
The longest wheelbase is 65,5 centimeters
The shortest wheelbase is 62,5 centimeters
As stated before, the longest wheelbase will of course give you the shortest length of kicks. Therefore it pops higher compared to the wheelbase with the longest kicks. Even so, this board will pop great regardless of your choice of wheelbase. But it’s nice to know you can tweak it to suit your personal preference.
Style
A true freestyle board. A new branch in longboard evolution.
Tricks will fly high and fast. Predictable and steady.
The board provides a steady and characteristic enough concave to make you feel confident about landing those big tricks. Pushing yourself and the gear to its maximum.
Dancing on this board will be fast. Although it is kinda short, all of its features come together to harmonize into a flowing stream like the water from which it came.
